Porch design for any structure must account for the wind exposure. Porches
present lots of sail area to catch the wind and can develop very high wind uplift
in ordinary wind events. They must be securely tied to the foundation. MiTek
engineers and manufactures products intended to provide a load path from the
porch components to the foundation.
Materials: 18 gauge
Finish: G-185 galvanizing

Installation:
• Use all specied fasteners.
• Not recommended for fence posts or other unrestrained (not xed or
fastened at top) applications. These anchors are not designed to resist
overturning (moment) loads.
• D44-TZ offers lateral and uplift resistance: they are not recommended as
a primary means of anchorage for posts in railings.
